Hehe - thank you! I kind of pulled from all over the place to make the armor. A lot of inspiration came from the Final Fantasy series, which also tends to yield characters with over-the-top armor with different cultural influences. I never thought of a lionfish when drawing this - but you are right, they are fish-like features in this character in that regard. I have no idea if this character could actually fly or anything, but it was fun to draw!

This is killing me with awesome. What is that, kinda Japanese (not up on which century) inspired armor with a bit of a 16th century western feel thrown in? And I'm just boggles adores over the reptilian-to-feathered-but-kinda-like-fish like these guys http://life-sea.blogspot.com.au/2011/07/life-of-red-lionfish.html Also draconic body armor that works/makes sense. I can see a synthesis between equestrian and human articulated plate. Just very very cool!
